Adoption is a selfless act, a powerful act that gives your pregnancy a future. Choosing adoption for your pregnancy does not mean that you’re giving up. Instead, it is a brave decision that puts your pregnancy first.
If you’re considering adoption and worried that your family won’t support your decision, read on to learn strategies that can help you move forward. Or, if you want to talk to someone in person about adoption and the different options that are available, contact Christian Family Services today to schedule a free, confidential appointment.
Learn All You Can About Adoption
You have choices when it comes to adoption. When talking to your family about adoption, it’s important to know all your options so that you can talk to them about what you’re thinking. If your family understands what you’re considering and why, they might be more likely to support your decision.
The details of adoption are completely up to you. CFS Caseworkers listen to what type of family you would like for your child. We have qualified families to choose from. You get to choose the adoptive family, how often (or little) you communicate with them and the child, and what type of communication you prefer (in-person, over the phone, etc.). Want to learn more about your adoption options? The caring team at Christian Family Services can walk you through your choices and answer any questions.
Talk to Someone You Can Trust
Each pregnancy choice, whether it be parenting, abortion, or adoption, are life-changing decisions. Only you can decide what is best. After thoroughly researching the different choices available to you in adoption, it can help to talk to someone you trust. This will give you the opportunity to voice your concerns and talk through your thoughts and feelings.
When choosing someone to talk to, it’s essential to pick someone who won’t try to force their opinion on you. Instead, you want someone who will simply listen and let you work through what you’re feeling.
